Ever since Steve Jobs first announced iBooks for the iPad, pundits have been wondering about the future of the Kindle and similar e-book readers in the face of this new competition. Now that we actually have access to an iPad, we had a chance to take a closer look at both the iBooks and Amazon’s Kindle for iPad apps. We are still waiting for the B&N iPad app, but both iBooks and iPad for Kindle already highlight the iPad’s potential as an e-book reader. iBooks It doesn’t come as a surprise that Apple managed to develop the prettier e-reader app. Switching from the iBooks store – which looks a lot like the App Store – to your bookshelf is done through a nifty animation. Newly downloaded books and samples smoothly slide into the bookshelf and thanks to a faux 3d look and a page-flip animation, the app itself mimics the look and feel of a book. When you click on a book in your shelf, it flips open and zoom to the page you left off. Flipping the iPad to landscape mode switches iBooks from displaying on page per screen to a more book-like two-page view. Given how wide the iPad’s screen its, this makes it a lot easier to read as the individual lines are much shorter. With regards to customization, iBooks allows its users to change the size of the font, but also the font itself (Baskerville, Cochin, Palatino, Times New Roman and Verdana). You can also set the screen brightness right from within any book, which is great for reading at night. As far as we can see, however, you can …

The Bebook or the electronic device which enables people to read the digital version of several books, magazines, newspapers etc. are marketed by several reputed brands like Amazon, Sony etc. Amazon of course pioneered this development. The objective was to provide exceptionally high quality reading experience. The result was equally impressive and the display technology was revolutionary. The sharpness was equal to or even better than ink and paper. These devices support a variety of digital formats and a wide range of content. When you are trying to browse newspapers or magazines, most of them come with a free trial offer for a specified length of time.

The Bebook advantages

The Advantage with the Bebook is that it allows you to carry a number of books and magazines without the attendant need for an overburdened package and attendant excess baggage charges. With Bebooks, they will snug fit into your hand baggage, and more important they can be retrieved any number of times during the journey, put back and retrieved again. The exercise will be as simple as pulling out your wallet and putting it back. What makes the Bebook an adorable device is the connectivity. You will never need a PC or a hot spot to get connected to the Bebook. Nor do you need any specific set up. The wireless connection is established through thin air, that is right thin air and presto, the book or newspaper you are seeking appears on your Bebook screen.

Protect it

This sleek device needs protection and cannot stand rough handling. Though the original manufacturers and Amazon in particular have provided the covers, they did not live upto the customers’ expectations or the safety aspects of the device. Understanding this situation, providers like Stylz have introduced a number of innovative Bebook covers. They come in a wide array of colors and designs.
